Can I upgrade to Lion from OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard)? Do I need to install Snow Leopard first? If so, Which version?
There are only two versions of Snow Leopard, the ordinary one and the server edition. Most people have no need of the server edition. Any Snow Leopard retail disc, no matter how old, even 10.6.0, can be updated to 10.6.8, so the version is pretty much irrelevant. You need to make sure your hardware is up to scratch for Lion though - you have to have an Intel processor, Core 2 Duo or better - NOT Core Duo.

Not necessary. The Apple web store has Snow Leopard disks at a very attractive price:

"Response Code" needed to install CS3 (upgrade from CS2) - cannot get through on 'chat'
How do I get a Response Code for installing CS3 (upgraded from CS2) on a new computer? I used to be able to call for the code but there is no phone support anymore. I have spent 3 days trying to connect through chat which is supposed to be available 24/7 and it says 'chat is unavailable at this time'. I have no way of installing my software. Please help adobe.
Okay so I spent a further 2 hours on hold this morning and actually forgot I was on hold until I heard the beep beep beep of disconnection! GARRRRRR
Anyway, after a nice visit from my family to celebrate my birthday, i got back on the phone this afternoon.
5 minutes later I was speaking to a Technical Support guy who was extremely helpful, did not ask me to repeat trouble shooting steps I had already taken, listened to me carefully as I explained the problem and diagnosed, fixed and activated my software within 30 minutes.
Resolution of the problem: they gave me an updater checker response code which worked immediately. Ctrl/Shift+dbl click on the broken update cheker page and up came a back door screen. Just a few digits later and PRESTO my software is up and running like a dream. Activation was smooth and registration no problem.
THANKS!!!
Now i just have to figure out how to tell Acrobat Prof 8 where the damn .dll is on my 64 bit vista computer - having already installed acrobat professional without telling it where to look because I didn't think the install was going to work anyway. Dang.

What programs need re-installing after upgrade to Mavericks?
Hi.
I'm new to Mac, currently running OSX 10.7.5 Lion with Parallels 9 - intending to upgrade to Maverick.
I'm aware that files should be backed up onto ext. source before backup but ..
Will the upgrade take out Parallels and associated Windows files/programs.
Will it take out files such as Office for Mac 2011 or am I being a little overcatious?Parallels or Boot Camp does not matter. The same answer holds. If you want the best chance of success, I would encourage the following:
Follow proper upgrade practices;
Remove all third-party peripherals.
Repair your hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
Backup your computer to an external drive.
Be sure you have at least 20 GBs of free space on your hard drive.
Download the Mavericks installer application.
Upon completion do not run the installer, but quit the installer.
Make a copy of the installer in your Downloads folder before you proceed with installing.
Make a bootable flash drive installer.
Install Mavericks on your computer.
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
1. After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
3. Use DiskMaker X to put your installer clone onto the USB flash drive.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.
My personal recommendation is that you backup your computer after making the flash drive installer, then boot from the flash drive installer, erase your hard drive, and install Mavericks. Test the system out thoroughly until you are satisfied it's working properly for you. Then restore your data from the backup you made. -

Any good advice before i begin?
GeorgeIt may be best to uninstall the current version to make sure that the registry gets updated properly.<br />
Otherwise it is possible that you still see the old entry in remove programs.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 15.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

Help with Adobe Photoshop 5.0 install and upgrade to 7.0
hello
I have a photoshop 5.0 (purchased to work with win xp) which i have not installed and used for a long time
I also have a Photoshop 7.0 win upgrade
My question is this:
I want to install my adobe photoshop 5.0 on a windows 7 machine,
i want to than upgrade to photo shop 7.0
for photoshop 5.0,
the cd runs and i get the SETUP MENU, WHERE I AM OFFERED OPTIONS TO INSTALL ADOBE PHOTOSHOP 5.0 AND ADOBE ACROBAT READER V3.01 ETC....
when i click on the install adobe photoshop 5.0 icon, it doesn't seem to do anything/
i have also tried to see if anything is happening in task manager - task says running - but nothing seems to be happening
any ideas why?
Thank you for your help.Are you trying to install 5.0 just so you can install the upgrade to 7.0?
If that's the case, you need not install 5.0. Just install 7.0 and when it asks you about what you're upgrading from, insert the disc for 5.0 per its instructions.
And, you're kind of living in the past... Even Photoshop 7.0 has very limited capabilities compared to what's shipping today (which is 5 full version releases newer).
It might be about time to buy a modern version of Photoshop.

I need to upgrade my first generation Macbook Air 1,1 to Lion OS x10. I need to install other software that requires 10.7 also a java update that requires 10.7. I am currently on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my macbook Air 1.1 will not go up to Mountain Lion. The Lion software update 10.7 is no longer available from the store or downloads.
Where do I get this?
It was only released a couple of months ago.
I really feel disinfranchised already by not being able to upgrade and keep up with other software needs but to not allow me to update to my full capacity is really ridiculous.@Jennacide wrote:

Upgrading to New iMac 2.4 ghz from iMac 1.8 ghz G5 - Logic 8 upgrade
Hello all,
Got a question and have not searched the forms yet for the answer but thought I would ask for a quick response....
I'm upgrading my iMac from 1.8 G5 to one of the New iMac 2.4 ghz. Will be buying this week. I had Logic 7 running on the old G5 and then bought the Logic upgrade to Studio 8.0. My question is:
When I get the New iMac do I have to install logic 7 and then install the Logic 8 upgrade?? Or can I just install the upgrade pack? Does the upgrade have to sit on top of Logic 7 in the new machine?
Thanks
JamesAll you need to install the upgrade to 8 from 7 is your LP7 XSKey, which you have to plug in during the installation.

've just upgraded to latest version of Firefox 4 and my Mac is only OSX.10.4.11 and now it won't open. How do I downgrade and get old Firefox back. Don't want to lose all my bookmarks. Why was I able to install in the first place. Very frustrated!!
You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
You can trash Firefox 4.0 then re-install Firefox 3.6, it will use your existing bookmarks, passwords etc
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com -

i am about to upgrade my ipod and want to give my old ipod nano to a friend. what do i need to do so thay can use it on their computer and create their own itunes account?
Connect it to iTunes, select the Nano in the "devices" column and click "Restore". The warning window you get will ask you if this is what you really want to do.
Your very lucky friend will essentially have it in the same condition as if she bought it new.
One more thing: if you registered it in My Support Profile, make sure to un-register it. Only you can do that. Have your friend register it under her own Apple ID.
